Darby and Cris On Anna Maria Island
What a beautiful day, a beautiful venue and a stunning bride. Darby Fitzsimons and Cris Csandi from Orlando, FL, ventured over to Anna Maria Island, FL to share their vows of commitment to each other. As you can see from the pictures, it was easy to capture some amazing and beautiful shots with such a handsome couple. The main event was held at a cozy little resort in Bradenton Beach called Bungalow Beach
. The y have several little bungalows on their property that have a Miami feel and direct access to the sand y beaches of the Gulf of Mexico. The couple stayed in one with a beautiful view of the water and within a few steps could be in the water.
The stage was set by a good friend of mine AJ with the Loft #5. She and her crew did a great job. From the Arch to chairs; it all looked unique and very Caribbean. AJ does staging, catering, gift baskets and numerous other services. Pretty much if you need to throw a party, AJ can hook you up.
The couple looked amazing and had such a great time all day. Reverend Charlie Shook did the honors of marrying Darby and Cris. Reverend Charlie has preformed hundreds of weddings in the area and is the best. Classy, professional and has a wonderful way with brides and grooms. Once they tied the knot, the cocktail hour was catered by The Waterfront Restaurant in Anna Maria directly on the beach at Bungalow Beach Resort. They provided yummy appetizers and refreshing drinks and cocktails.
Then it was off to dinner and cake! We all headed to The Waterfront Restaurant located up by the historic Anna Maria City Pier. There were about 50 people who had dinner and drinks. They closed off half the restaurant just for the party and along with us came a steel drum player from Sarasota, FL.All and all, the fun, the drinks and the love was flowing like a river. Everyone had a ball and Darby and Cris, drove off into the night as husband and wife. I wish you all the best forever and ever. Thank you for letting me be a part of the most important day of your life thus far!

I like your work and I must admit that beach weddings are one of the best to photograph because of the background and enchanting colors. Great work!
